Get Staked Playing Online Poker

Staking does not just occur in live poker tournaments or cash games. Staking players takes place online as well. The player putting up the money is referred to as a “staker” and the person seeking a stake is the “stakee.”

Poker Staking Forums

Staking poker players online is becoming a larger part of the online landscape. It literally has turned into a business with several sites hosting hundreds of members looking to collaborate with each other via a stake.

How do I know I am going to get paid?

Reputable forums have forms that must be filled out and agreed to by both the staker and the stakee so that each individual is protected and on equal footing. Once the terms have been agreed to the “stakee” plays the tournament and proceeds accordingly. Usually, if a person is seeking to stake someone he is going to check out that players stats on www.sharkscope.com or www.officialpokerrankings.com so that they know exactly how successful that player has been both past and present.

Usually, players with a positive ROI or high ITM percentage are the ones that get staked.

How Staking Sites Operate

Most sites do charge a nominal fee for posting to cover operations costs and insurance on the site. 

Think your good enough to get staked? If you do then take your time and pick the site that’s best for you.

Good luck!
